FEATURE ARTICLE

The feature article, though a short one, is an excerpt from the book
Man,
the Dwelling Place of God by A.W. Tozer. The article is called
"How To Try The Spirits". Tozer was dealing with the beginnings of
the Latter Rain movement in his day, referred to in this article as "Latter
Day Light". This article proves that the basis for discernment has
not changed over time for Christians. It also proves that the same
old heresies continue to come back again and again. The problem in
our day is that the Latter Rain heresy is not being rejected by a large
part of Christianity because so many Christians have, frankly, lost their
will and ability to discern truth from error. Now is not the time
to get lax in discernment, for the time is coming, indeed is already here,
when false teachers and false prophets abound on TV, in conferences, in
crusades, in every part of the world. True believers need to raise
the standard as never before:

Is. 8:20 To the law and to the testimony: if they speak
not according to this word, it is because there is no light in them.

How To Try The Spiritsby A.W. Tozer
(An excerpt from his book Man, the Dwelling Place of God)

Another revealing test of the soundness of
religious experience is, How does it affect my attitude toward the Holy
Scriptures?

Did this new experience, this new view of truth,
spring out of the Word of God itself or was it the result of some stimulus
that lay outside the Bible? Tenderhearted Christians often become victims
of strong psychological pressure applied intentionally or innocently by
someone’s personal testimony, or by a colorful story told by a fervent
preacher who may speak with prophetic finality but who has not checked
his story with the facts nor tested the soundness of his conclusions by
the Word of God.

Whatever originates outside the Scriptures
should for that very reason be suspect until it can be shown to be in accord
with them. If it should be found to be contrary to the Word of revealed
truth no true Christian will accept it as being from God.

However high the emotional content, no experience
can be proved to be genuine unless we can find chapter and verse authority
for it in the Scriptures. “To the word and to the testimony” must always
be the last and final proof.

Whatever is new or singular should also be
viewed with a lot of caution until it can furnish scriptural proof of its
validity. Over the last half-century quite a number of unscriptural notions
have gained acceptance among Christians by claiming that they were among
the truth that were to be revealed in the last days. To be sure, say the
advocates of this latter-day-light theory, Augustine did not know, Luther
did not, John Knox, Wesley, Finney and Spurgeon did not understand this;
but greater light has now shined upon God’s people and we of these last
days have the advantage of fuller revelation. We should not question the
new doctrine or draw back from this advanced experience. The Lord is getting
His Bride ready for the marriage supper of the Lamb. We should all yield
to this new movement of the Spirit. So they tell us.

The truth is that the Bible does not teach
that there will be new light and advanced spiritual experiences in the
latter days; it teaches the exact opposite. Nothing in Daniel or the New
Testament epistles can be tortured into advocating the idea that we of
the end of the Christian era shall enjoy light that was not known at its
beginning. Beware of any man who claims to be wiser than the apostles or
holier than the martyrs of the Early Church. The best way to deal with
them is to rise and leave his presence. You cannot help him and he surely
cannot help you.
